i have had many problems since i upgraded my phone. sometimes if i do a soft reset, my phone gets stuck in the rainbow screen and sometimes takes a while to get back to normal. i want to just update my phone back to normal since i actually want to send it into sprint. Can someone please let me know what i need to do in order to do this, thanks
either go to htc website or sprint website and down load latest released rom and install. It should be a complete install back to original radio and rom.
Does anyone know how to return my verizon xv6800 back to factory, I unlocked/flashed to get gps to work and it updated to windows 6.1 which i dont like and I want it back to factory. Verizon cant do anything and neither can htc. has anyone done this?

Yes, relocker then the ROM and Radio are actually both included in the same file this time.
So run the relocker, unpack the ROM file and place the .nbh file in the RUU folder and run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
ok not so good luck so far, have ran the reLocker and went to your links to d/l and there is no program to run them, Im relativerly new to this and need help quick what is my next step????
lol sorry i posted before i refreshed

ok so you are saying i dont have to flash the factory radio one??
This ROM file is the full thing that includes the radio as well, so no need for a separate radio flash.
So, just to recap here for anyone still curious...
Once you run the Relocker (which will restore your bootloader to factory - also disallowing any new custom roms) then you're ready to run the Rom Update Utility (RUU) from the ROM you downloaded from Verizon or HTC's website.
the ROM update will flash both your radio as well as your ROM. good luck!
Annoyed with all of my issues....can't get data to work w/o prompting for a login every few minutes.
Flashing back...getting everything up and working, then starting all over.
Let us know what happens

I am curious because I have all of the files and know what to do, but so far I have not had any of the problems that everyone else has had so have not needed to try it yet, so let us know that all is well just for comfort. Thanks.
In fact, all is well.
I flashed back to the stock VZW ROM (third time I think), I made sure all of my provisioning issues with Verizon were worked out (finally had the tech "kick the switch").
1) Then I proceeded to load the 2.4 bootloader,
2) then the 3.16 Unauthorized Sprint ROM w/ radio,
3) then finally installed a cooked DCD 2.3.2 ROM.
Things to note:
1) I never let the Sprint ROM boot up
2) I had no signal so ran *22802 then hit End as soon as it connected
3) Still no signal after reboot
4) No A key, MSID, or MDN issues, but I did re-enter the MSID and MDN as discussed in other threads
5) After re-entering MSID and MDN then after reboot I had signal
6) never had to run *228 to OTA program (in the past programming with *228 has reversed the effect of re-entering the MSID and MDN)
In general, I feel that the OTA from VZW sends down some programming that conflicts with the 3.27 radio...but I have nothing to prove that.
GPS is running great (I just loaded the AstroGPSLauncher)
Not sure about Rev A. It does seem snappy. What's a good site to test from the phone?
I'm happy and not re-flashing until a solid radio for Verizon arrives.
just to let everyone know i ran the factory rom and it worked perfectly, phone is back to normal, thanks !!l

This is a bit off-topic so apologies...
But I am left wondering that if you can include the Radio into the rom,
Has DCD or No2Chem tried to integrate the radio flash into the rom and see if some of the issues with the radio goes away?
I doubt separate install could be a cause of anything but it might be worth looking into.
US Cellular is notorious for not releasing updates for their phones unless it's truly broke. So it's unlikely an official 6.1 update will ever show up from them.
I know a few have successfully updated thru non-official channels by modifying other kitchens/roms.
Hoping someone who has done it can post what roms they used and what changes were needed.
Thanks,

If you can get a ROM dump, someone like DCD could probably provide you with a carrier cab. Otherwise, you need to write down a lot of your PST settings and restore them manually, including shared keys for data.
If you can manage to get a carrier cab, then you can do the same procedure as most people. If you want, look at the guide in my signature, the only thing different would be you need to get a carrier cab or the settings for your phone company.
Is there a tool that will let me make
A dump of my ROM? I would like the ability to go back in case I screw something up.
My main goal is to get the internal GPS working, and having 6.1 would be a plus, but not as big a goal.
Thanks,
BTC
Bump...
I am in the same boat at BTC.
My employer was with ATT and I had an 8525, waiting up upgrade to 8925/Tilt next month. They switched carriers to USC, and it was 6800 or a Q. I chose the 6800.
Thanks to XDA, long ago I unlocked my 8525, ran several custom ROMs on it, and had it doing everything but my laundry. Very cool.
But now again I have a stock phone. I was excited to have GPS onboard, but I am frustrated by this old ROM.
I am more than willing to do a ROM dump if you can point me to instructions on how to do it, and PM me or something with who to send it to.
THANKS!
I already have a USCC rom dump but I have been lazy. I will try and find time today.

Hate to clutter up the board, but just wanted to gush "THANK YOU" for doing this and so darn quickly! If this were Plurk, I would send Karma your way!
THANK YOU!!
I... I, I think I lo... lov... I think I love you! Thank you DCD, and thanms to all the rest for the helpful info! I spent 3/4 of my shift (protecting and serving), not "protecting and serving"; I've been looking for US Cellular (wretched... ewewwww!) specific ROMs and tutorials. So many of them in here, but was unsure as to which was appropriate. I'm going to attempt scrawnyb's tutorial with DCD's latest ROM... I hope I don't screw this up!
And how would I use these files?
DCD, is this a fully flashable format? (having to download it via my phone at the moment, so will take over an hour to finish...), however, with the proper bootloader and radio, could this be flashed over one of your roms and be fully functional?
Thanks,
BTC
did your spl unlock code work for you? mine isn't working for me how did you get you msl?
I used the registry tweak that creates a log file containing the SPL code, once I had that I was able to use QPST to read the phone programming, and reload it back once the phone was updated to a new BL, radio and rom. This kept all of my data settings, and all I had to do was run the carrier cab file.

I overwrote my DMU key with the DCD rom.. will this put me back online?
Still available?
After some rebuilding and starting over, I no longer have DCD's rom. Following the URL in this thread the page has reverted to GoDaddy. Is the USCC rom for the 6800 still out there anywhere?
TIA!

If you are referring to his rom dump, it would only be useful to pull apps and settings out of the original rom. It's not flashable, mostly because of how old their radio/rom was. It is very likely that you would brick the phone if you were somehow able to flash this back.
I may still have a copy on my dead computer (You aren't the only one DCD!, lol), need a new HDD then I can see whats still in my archives of stuff.

I've recently flashed to DCD's 3.23 ROM, and all went well; only problem is that I need to return my unit due to hardware issues! My carrier is US cellular, and I have downloaded the original US Cellular ROM Dump provided by DCD but I do not know hoe to flash this back onto the Titan... can anyone help? I have to return the unit upon receipt of the new one! Anyway, I plan on flashing the new unit, and It would greatly help if I new how to use the ROM Dump as a backup. Any direction that anyone can provide? Thank You all!!!
If your carrier's ROM dump has everything included (ROM, Radio, SPL, etc) like the Verizon one did, then you basically need to follow two steps:
(1) Relock using Titan Relocker
(2) Flash on the Stock ROM
you can find more info about this if you search for relocking
You need to Run the titanrelocker and then flash the radio and rom. Problem is there is a chance your usb wont work after the relock so you might have to flash the original radio via sd card then the original rom the same way.
Thank You for your replies; especially scrawnyb... I used your tutorial for my original flash; worked great. Lost all access to EPST though! Anyhow, I probably didn't specify well enough, the dumped ROM I'm speaking of is the one provided by DCD; I have no clue as to how to even begin to flash these files. I believe that all (radio etc.) is included, but, again, I'm not sure as to how to do it. I hope I'm not asking too much; if so, I apologize! here is a link to the files i'm speaking of; maybe that can help you help me. As for lllboredlll's reply, I don't know much of UC either! What do you think is my best shot? Thanks guys!
Ok, I'll admit... I'm a newb and even the wiki is somewhat confusing. I've flashed my XV6800 before using this guide:
http://www.phonenews.com/how-to-add-gps-to-htc-mogul-xv6800-p4000-titan-2663/
And it's been working well with the GPS.
But I would like to try tethering and so I want to upgrade to the latest DCD but I am confused as to the Radio/Etc.
Can anyone point me to the right direction on what Radios, etc. I need.
The end result is, I want to do both GPS and Tethering and still connect to Verizon.
Thanks in advance!

If you currently have GPS running.... what Radio do you have?
If you want the latest and greatest read this "Compatibility List"
Compatibility List
More than likely... you'll just need to update using DCD's rom. No radio needed.
I have Radio 3.27.00, which is incompatible. So I will need to upgrade the radio too but I don't see 3.35.00 or better for download.

Go to the wiki page.... it has links for them... here's the wiki...
Titan Recent
Here's the 3.42.30 radio...
3.42.30
Thanks for the link to the Radio.
So can anyone help me with the order of the loading... this is what I did last time and it worked like a charm.
* Open Hard-SPL-240-MFG.exe. It will extract files into C:\ttn240mfg, and then launch an unlocker. Follow the instructions on screen.
* Once it has been completed, launch the device’s software update. Follow the instructions on screen for the updater.
* Following the updater’s final instructions, power cycle the device as instructed (holding power and reset buttons simultaneously). The device will likely freeze at startup on your carrier’s logo. This is normal.
* When the device does freeze, hold power, camera, and reset buttons. This will send the device into what is known as Bootloader Mode.
* Connect the Titan back to your computer. Run the baseband radio firmware update, similar to the instructions above.
* When finished, power cycle again as instructed, holding power and reset buttons to complete the update.
But now I have the DCD ROM, the Radio and the extra Verizon Cab. What order do I do them in? The Wiki really doesn't go into the order like that.
Still looking for a little guidance here.

Thanks for the reply. One more question before I bite the bullet and give this a try. The last radio I did was an EXE file and it loaded it into my machine.
It looks like the 3.42 radio I downloaded is a nbh file. It appears from the wiki that I need ROMUpdateUtility.exe to load it. Is this correct, and if so, where can I find it. I see many references to it... but no working links. The wiki even insinuates that it should be in the ROM folder... but I looked for it in all the DCD kitchen rom folders but couldn't find it.
Thanks!

Actually... if you have 2.4 bootloader... you can copy that TITAIMG.nbh file onto a formatted SD card and start the bootloader. It will load it then. if you use ROMUpdateUtility.exe... I believe you have to name it RUU_signed.nbh and put it into the same folder as that exe.
Unfortunately, I don't have a non-HD card to throw it on and I heard there were problems with the SHDC cards.
Do you have a working link for the ROM Update utility? I've tried several links on xda, but none of them seem to be working.
Thanks!

Download DCD's Kitchen. The utility is in the RUU folder once you extract the kitchen.
When I tried to flash the ROM, it says this utility may not be used with my phone.
Weird. Any suggestions?
Hey guys,
With this 1.95 AT&T ROM, just a question:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439346
- I had the HARD SPL and cooked ROM before this
- I then flashed to this ROM because I wanted to go back to stock for a return.
Is that it then? Am I good? Or do I have to continue to flash the Stock SPL as listed in the HardSPL instructions for reverting to stock?
I'd really appreciate any help guys. I need to know if this ROM 100% puts me back to the way I was before starting with flashing. Or is there something else I have to do?
NOTE: I posted this in the thread for the actual ROM, but because of a lack of activity in that thread, I was afraid of not getting a response. Sorry for any inconvenience.
When I returned my Fuze, I just flashed the stock ROM and left Hard-SPL and didn't get any static. They didn't check the bootloader or anything. YMMV, so you may want to revert back to Stock SPL if you think they would check the bootloader. Personally, I would feel confident with just the stock ROM.
Those clerks don't know chit unless it has to do with the iPhone.
GL
i having the same pro flash and no luck with the radio wish i could get the stock radio back
The stock radio is in the Radio thread. Flash that and you'll be fine. As was said however, you shouldn't even need it as i doubt they'd even check that.
Hey thanks for the replies, guys! That's great.
That will probably work for my return. But, I also have my wife's phone which I'm going to flash back to stock and I just want to make absolutely sure that EVERYTHING is back the way it was when purchased. Also, just for future reference I want to know how to get all components back to normal. Where is that stock radio thread?
Any help on that? What else am I missing?
UPDATE:
It just occurred to me that I should have written down the ROM and radio version numbers before doing the HardSPL and ROM flashes to try out some cooked ROMs.
Anyway, I've got the stock AT&T ROM on there now, but how do I know what radio came with my phone? Is there anything else I should put back on there? I know they won't check but I just want to be thorough.
Thanks!
if in the US it had to be the 1.02.25.32 radio as i dont think it came with any others initially in the US. if u go to the wiki it lists all the stock roms and radios that came with the device.
huh??
So, if I now have that radio and the Original ROM am I all back to stock settings now?
I'm confused though. Because out of the box I did the following:
1. Hard SPL (File called: RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3)
2. NATF ROM 2.2
...then decided I wanted to go back and did nothing more than flash the stock ROM.
Without flashing back an SPL, how could I have still ended up with everything back to stock?
